Re: Section 401 Water Quality Certification application
Dear Mr. Goddard:
On March 30, 2009, the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (Division) received your additional information for an
application for a 401 General Water Quality Certification to impact 100 linear feet of stream to install a two road
crossings for the Creekside Pointe on the Parkway Subdivision, near Wilkesboro NC in Wilkes County. Additional
information is required in order that we may determine your project's compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0500. The
Division will require this information in order to process your application to impact protected wetlands and/or streams on
the subject property. Therefore, we will place this project on hold as incomplete until we receive this additional
information, and if we do not receive the additional information requested below, we will have to move toward denial of
your application as required by 15A NCAC 2H.0506. Please provide the following information so that we may continue
to review your project.
Please provide drawings that include all impacts to jurisdictional and non jurisdictional wetland, stream,
water features, and State regulated buffers must be shown and labeled on the site plans at a scale no
smaller than 1" = 50'. All excavation, fill, flooding, stabilization, and other impacts that will be
conducted in or near jurisdictional and non jurisdictional wetland, stream, water features, and State
regulated buffers must be indicated. Please provide cross sectional details showing the provisions for
aquatic life passage (burial of culvert 20% for culverts :5 48 inches, and 1-foot for culverts > 48 inches).
2. Per the requirements of the General Certification, all work shall be done "in the dry". Therefore,
dewatering methods will be necessary to temporarily dewater the stream channels during structure
installations. Please provide a construction sequence that details the method of dewatering to be utilized
at the site and the sequence of construction events to be followed to ensure compliance with this
condition.
3. Per the requirements of GC 3705, please enumerate all temporary impacts (in addition to permanent
impacts already indicated) to the stream channel. Temporary impacts include areas of disturbance
necessary for proper pipe installation, proper dewatering, as well as any impacts from temporary erosion
control measures or fill stabilization. Please note that temporary impacts should be minimized to the
maximum extent practical.
